Just watched a youtube video comparing these two similarly priced batteries. The presentation was made by a self-described Battery Guru. The first thing he said that caught my attention was this. While most people believe a battery should only be discharged 50%, a 6V battery can be discharged to 80%. He didn't say if or how that effects the number of battery cycles. Then he stated that the Trojan battery which have fewer amp hours, 210Ah vs 232 for the Interstates, can be discharged 500 times. The Interstate batteries can only be discharged 300 times. So a couple questions.
Can 6v batteries be discharged to 80% without shortening the life of the battery.
Can a Trojan Pacer be discharged that many more times than a Costco Interstate battery.
